Recs if you like Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982...

as we approach the end of the year, i thought of compiling a collection of short audiobooks for anyone trying to sneak more books onto their read list or for those trying to complete reading challenges! best of luck! 🌟

fiction where a composed, detached voice conceals its own turmoil, or circles a truth it cannot name, drawing the reader’s hungry gaze toward the silences, each one heavy with unspoken meaning.

it’s all in what is not said.

recs welcome as always :)

Short, quick reads that still pack a punch and wake you from your numb slumber

east & south east asian literary fiction beyond murakami.

timeless modern classics – 20th century onwards – exploring universal themes like identity, morality and society.

these books capture elements of the uniquely beautiful symbolism, tones and rhythms that characterise asian languages and culture.

very much open to recs for expansion. (one book per author, typically their most renowned)

discover korean literature through women's writtings.

a favourite niche of mine, partly inspired by 4 years spent living there ✨
